Spanish for Fluent Speakers I

Fluent speakers of Spanish who have had little previous formal study of the Spanish language will develop the fundamentals of all four language skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. This level focuses heavily on the interpretive skills of reading and listening. Additionally, students will present information, concepts, and ideas to an audience of listeners and readers on a variety of topics in Spanish. Students will gain knowledge and understanding of the relationship among practices, products, and perspectives of Spanish-speaking cultures. Readings and writing activities will be used to teach literary analysis similar to that of an English course.
